Riot JS

A React-like user interface micro-library

Created by muut

Version 2.0 release at the beginning of 2015

What is Riot?

So why use it?

Real html, css, & javascript?

Smaller interface

file size: it's fractions of the size as the main view libraries

real? You write html, css, javascript that gets compiled to a function. It looks, behaves to what your used to.

interface: Smaller interface with out missing anything. Clear and concise function signtures.

What is really needed?

Observables, Modules & Routing

*State, UI Components & Routing

**Model, View & Controller

Riot's philosophy on building apps.

Observables allow you to build a dispatcher

This was an easy way for my brain to map to what I konw. In reality it's better to apply a un-directional dataflow. Having dumb components.

Let's look at some code
